As a leading girls’ school in Australia, St Catherine’s is committed to nurturing and empowering independent and globally responsive young women, enabling them to approach all their endeavours with confidence, wisdom and integrity. – St Catherine’s School Charter

As a School community, we help students find their sense of purpose in the world through an environment that integrates critical awareness, a social conscience and quality relationships. We inspire our students to not only own their learning but also understand and appreciate their own unique capacities and the world around them.

Boarding at St Catherine’s School provides our girls with a safe and comfortable living environment. They have the opportunity to make friends with girls from across Australia and around the world. Boarders are provided the freedom to socialise with friends and to explore Melbourne on organised weekend activities, as well as the opportunity to develop positive study habits and importantly, to have a lot of fun!

St Catherine’s prides itself on being a cohesive and unique School community. Current St Catherine’s families, along with our alumnae, future students, and current and past parents and staff, are all active, generous, enthusiastic and supportive members of the St Catherine’s School community.
